IS AN EXACT SCIENCE 



We invented the original irrigation system, many years 

 ago. Constant improvement by thorough experts has 

 made the "K T" system of Gates and Valves the most 

 perfect in use today ; appliances that are one hundred per 

 cent better than those first produced. 



Let us overcome your irrigation difficulties and plan 

 your system. Our expert advice is free. 



Stop wasting money on imperfect methods. Install an 

 Irrigation System that will soon pay for itself. That's the 

 "K T." Cut this out, mail to us, and we will forward our 

 Booklet on up-to-date Irrigation Systems. 7th edition, 

 just off the press.
